Poppy's Story

Meet Poppy — a 3-year old spayed, fully vaccinated bundle of energy, loyalty, and personality who is looking for her next great adventure. Poppy is a beautiful black flat coat retriever mix and medium sized (50 lbs). She is smart, highly trainable, and would be a great dog to do classes or agility with.<br/><br/>Poppy is the kind of dog who wakes up ready to do something. If there’s a squirrel in the yard, she’s already on patrol. If there’s a lizard, consider it a full-time job. She’s fast, focused, and highly food motivated (translation: she’s very trainable if snacks are involved) and picks up routines quickly. With consistency and someone who enjoys working with an intelligent, energetic dog, she really shines.<br/><br/>At home, Poppy has a sweet, surprisingly soft side. After she’s gotten her zoomies out, she’s just as likely to curl up next to you on the couch or stretch out on the bed like she owns the place. She’s deeply loyal to her people and wants to be wherever you are.<br/><br/>She’ll do best with someone willing to help her polish her manners and keep her grounded as she learns.<br/><br/>Poppy prefers to be the only pet in the home where she can fully relax into being your one-and-only. She just needs a space to run, a person to bond with, and someone who appreciates a dog with drive, heart, and a little bit of goofball energy.<br/><br/>If you’ve been looking for a dog who can be trained and then happily snooze beside you at the end of the day—Poppy might just be your girl!
